Short (a couple of hours) scenic walks in the north of Wales?

Looking for some recommendations regarding short scenic walks (a couple of hours) in North Wales. We will be based in Conwy.
Thank you for any and all suggestions.

There's a list of walks centred on Conway (as English-speakers in the area STILL call it) at http://www.conwy.gov.uk/doc.asp?cat=9185&doc=29225

Scroll down to the "See also" section, where there's a range of .pdf's for downloading.

The North Wales Path - one of those tax-squandering spurious "long-distance paths" cobbled together to create jobs for unemployable officials (https://www.ldwa.org.uk/ldp/members/...rth+Wales+Path ) - includes a section from Conway to Penmaenmawr which is very fine and effortless. You can take it in one direction, walk down from Penmaenmawr mountain into the town and return to Conway by train.

Or take the recently constructed coastal path through the dunes (http://www.sustrans.org.uk/policy-ev...conwy-town-and)

How about Conwy Mountain?

Alternatively there are some lovely walks on the Great Orme in Llandudno. Download ideas of walks here:
